Clinical Interests
Vascular surgery, hemodialysis access, peripheral arterial disease, aortic disease, carotid artery disease, endovascular surgery, surgical disorders of vascular thrombosis and blood coagulation
Research Interests
The research interests of my laboratory include the study of vascular biology and cellular differentiation of vascular tissue, the proteolytic and cell mediated regulation of blood coagulation, inflammatory mediated thrombosis, and the development of bioengineered blood vessels. The clinical interests of my laboratory include the study of novel therapies for vascular and cardiovascular surgery, thrombosis related to surgical procedures, clinical inhibitors of blood coagulation proteases, and the study of the immune response to biologics used in surgery.
